 'I have a big dream for all my seven children: “my dream is for them to be leaders in this country, so that no matter my station in life, people will see them in good light.”'
“Though, I am greatly handicapped now because I only make living out of my quranic teaching class, I want well-meaning people to come to my aid. I am using this medium to appeal to the governor of Oyo State, Senator Isiaq Abiola Ajimobi and his wife, Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole and the Federal Government (Nigeria) to come to my aid so that my joy won’t turn sour”
